UNSPSC 42293605: Surgical sound sets

In this classification, this commodity indicates a product used as a set of sounds during a surgical procedure in a medical setting. Most nations, for tariff and trade purposes, schedule these products under HS 901920.

UNSPSC 42293605 Surgical sound sets is a Commodity code. State and local governments use this code to procure surgical instruments and equipment for operating room and outpatient clinical use, though recent opportunities show significant scope divergence from the code's nominal name. The San Mateo County Medical Center solicitations tagged under this code actually seek laser equipment with technical support (RFP, posted July 10, 2026, due July 10, 2026) and surgical power instruments to replace obsolete equipment (RFP, posted June 29, 2026, due June 5, 2026). A California state procurement for outpatient building furniture (RFB, posted May 20, 2026, due June 4, 2026) and another Sourcewell cooperative procurement for law enforcement equipment (RFP, posted May 12, 2026, due June 16, 2026) are also tagged to the code despite having no connection to surgical sound sets or OR instruments. Issuing bodies in the recent record include a California county hospital system (San Mateo Medical Center), state capital facilities procurement (California state outpatient building project), a state police agency (Nevada), and a multi-state cooperative purchasing vehicle (Sourcewell). The mismatch between the code name and actual work solicited suggests either tagging error or that the code is used broadly for medical facility equipment beyond surgical instruments alone.

Geographic activity concentrates in California (San Mateo County and state capital projects) with outlier solicitations in Nevada and a multi-state cooperative procurement. The two most directly relevant opportunities are San Mateo County Medical Center's RFP for surgical power equipment with a five-year contract term, minimum qualifications requiring five years' experience in manufacturing, sales, or leasing of such products, and a local business preference (5 percent additional evaluation points, with small or micro business bonuses up to 8 percent), and the same agency's RFP for laser equipment and OR technical support services requiring HIPAA compliance, background clearance, and Living Wage Ordinance adherence at $17.00 per hour minimum. California state procurements for outpatient furniture include CBE set-aside requirements. The code shows limited recent activity directly aligned with surgical sound sets; the bulk of tagged opportunities target broader medical equipment, facilities furnishings, and unrelated law enforcement goods.
